yconic is the place where you can give and get the help you need for your life as a student. To help keep our community an enjoyable, helpful and safe place for all members, please adhere to the following guidelines.

1. Be nice to people. It's okay to provide constructive criticism, but there is no need to insult other members. For example, "X major is over-saturated right now. You might have trouble finding a job" is fine. "Your major is dumb. Have fun working in fast food," is not helpful nor appropriate.

2. Ask actual questions. If you're looking for help with something, titling a thread "HELP, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO" isn't going to appeal to the members that may be best suited to help you. Be specific and title your post with relevant information.

3. Don't abuse the anonymous feature by pretending to be multiple people. Surprise, surprise, we know who posts what :)

4. Please only tag relevant interests when you create a new thread. Adding unrelated interests is unlikely to get you the help you're looking for and can frustrate other members.

5. Avoid spamming. This includes replying to your own thread for the sole purpose of moving it up the discussion feed.

Dropped program already on acedemic probation

Alright here is my situation and I have looked through the forum as much as I could to find a similar situation when it came to osap, with no such luck. Anyways I went to Westervelt College (ugh i know) for medical administration graduated, and decided I wanted to go back in Sept for Massage (so that I could open a business eventually), well i was on academic probation, not for marks but i believe it was because it was my second time being in a program or something - anyways I decided it wasnt for me, so i decided to drop the program but it was way passed the college "drop out" date and so i just stopped going.. anyways I am wanting to apply for college for nursing for sept 2012but i am afraid that i wont get OSAP and its the only way I will be able to "afford" school.. any advice?

Being on OSAP academic probation means you've already failed and you're given one more chance before losing your OSAP funding completely. Part of getting off probation is that you pass all current courses, so if you dropped a program, you're screwed.

i was osap probation, because i had already completed a program that should have ensured me a career.. but because i went back for another program so they put me on probation.. I dropped out for medical reasons as well as it not being right for me..
